Hello,OK, after playing around with the settings, I finally figured it out. I went into the "Module Manager," then clicked on the "Top Menu" entry. In the "Position" pull-down menu, I chose 'hornav" and then saved it. That made my top menu appear (ahem) on the top.

I have this problem before and this solution works for me.First make sure that you published you menu in module manager.If you are using "external link" in your menu, make sure that you don't duplicate a link.

I got mine working and just wanted to share with everyone. I created my template from scratch.

1. Under Extensions pull down, select Module Manager2. Click on New (top right) to create a new module3. Select Menu (radio button)4. In title name your menu Top Menu5. Position: user36. Order: 0::Top Menu7. Under Parameters the Menu Name is topmenu from dropdown8. Click on Save

Hi GerryThanks for your suggestion, I don't know if that is relevant to 1.6 though, because I went as far as Extensions \ Module Manager \ Top Menu \ but couldn't find Parameters anywhere. If you could let me know where they are, that would be great. Thanks.

I have tried this, and my menu is showing but vertically and it needs to be horizontal.

Thanks Julianne! This worked for me. I created a template from Artisteer and was very disappointed when I uploaded it and my top menu was not appearing nor was the scrolling option I had in place. I followed steps 1-5:

1. Under Extensions pull down, select Module Manager2. Click on New (top right) to create a new module3. Select Menu (radio button)4. In title name your menu Top Menu5. Position: user3

the Parameters don't show for me and even though there was an Order box, for some reason it wasn't showing anything. Anyway, I made sure it was published and saved and closed it and I had my top menus. Of course the titles for each of the menu's I created in Artisteer didn't publish. It pulled the titles from the Articles on my page but that's another problem I'm sure I can fix.

I had the Top Menu, (Position 1) showing up like a fixed drop down menu, three days of searching and playing I was able to get the Top Menu working by going to Advanced Options and inserting nav into the box Menu Tag ID and -nav into the box Menu Class Suffix.

Now my menu items are across the top of the template looking as they should, I think I was using Legacy Flat List in 1.5, this would not change for me as the Alternative Layout is Default in 1.7, this could have something to do with the template I was using.

Hi, i've been reading this forum and i finally found a solution that worked for my template:Go to Extentions >> Module managerand search for 'menu' or any specific menu youre looking for.Click on mainmenu or your prefered menu and then go to Basic settings on the right hand side and select 'Yes' for Show Sub-menu Items.

Hi everyone I also have a problem with my menu not showing up! , i think i deleted something inside my Joomla 1.5. My Tom menu in not showing anymore . But when i enter the 'template code' my menu is there at "User 3'.

I checked my modules ( menu mod) everything is in great position .

Did i erase something in the system? or anything that cause this? Pls help ((.. Thank you

Thanks very much in advance...

I had the same problem, yet had no drop down or top menu. I found the answer in the instructions for the template i used. This worked:

Go to Menus>> Main Menu or create a new menu from there, Add a new menu item and assign desired article to it, place your menu module on “Menu” position from extensions>> module manager. While placing the menu on menu position make sure to select the desired pages (from bottom of the page) where you want to display that menu.
